36 Tasting Notes
Just tried a second steeping of this, combined with a little of Adagio’s “Chestnut,” and I think I may have found my favorite combination. Delicious and very comforting. Just the thing for a cold January morning.
Preparation
While this certainly smelled and tasted fruity, I couldn’t help feel a little let down, since it was the first Adagio black tea I didn’t absolutely love. It’s fine, and I will drink the rest of the sample bag without complaint, but there was nothing remarkable about it either. When I compare this to the rich, full-bodied Chestnut or Irish Breakfast, today’s mug comes off like peach-flavored hot water. Maybe this will be better over ice. I will probably try the rest of the sample cold, to see if I like it any better.
Flavors: Apricot, Peach
Preparation
Had some of this tea tonight while trying to “use up” a few of my old teabags. After this awful experience, the rest of this is going straight in the trash. Did not like. Smelled revolting, tasted worse. I know there’s no real tea in this, but whatever there is, is not pleasant. It tastes like medicine. Only worse.
Preparation
I didn’t think I would like this tea, as I’m a wimpy girl and usually prefer the sweeter, “dessert” teas. But this one really surprised me. Yes, I took it with almond milk and sweetener, but it was still MUCH more delicious than I expected. Nothing fancy or unusual about the flavors, just a yummy black tea that had me feeling sad when my mug was empty. I will definitely buy this one again.
